Yeah but you should want to want to floss. You don't want to want to do heroin.
Well sure, but I still find your statement unconvincing as a reason I should feel that way. Once I conclude that I should want to floss (presumably because of the evidence it is beneficial), then that statement is a helpful way to install the habit. But it's not a reason that I should feel that way in and of itself.
Maybe I'm just being too pedantic. Sorry.
No problem. My core assumption is that your reasons for feeling gross are well founded on evidence. This is probably only true in a very limited domain.
